I gave up on podcasts because of the excessive insertion of commercials, and the execrable user interface of the iphone podcast app.

There are other apps too, such as Overcast, and ads on podcasts are really easy to skip.

		Yeah, I can skip forward 30 sec, then back up, blech. It's just not worth it when you constantly have to interact with the podcast app. Scott Adams' podcasts were different. He inserted very few commericials, and they were short enough there was no reason to skip forward. I tried many other podcasts after he passed away, and they all were largely long, boring commercials. Yuck. I now listen to Pandora or Soma FM instead.
